Answer 1

Use the below simple code to add the days dynamically.

int Days = 50; // this is the input . you can change it in argument. the format of the date also changeable as per your requirement. 

        try
        {
        Date date = null;
        String str = "2013-06-04";          
        SimpleDateFormat formatter = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd");    
        date = formatter.parse(str);
        Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();
        calendar.setTime(date);
        calendar.add(Calendar.DATE,Days );      
        System.out.println("" + formatter.format(calendar.getTime()));
        }
        catch (Exception e)
        {
            e.printStackTrace();   
        }

Hope this helps you.

Answer 2

As far as I understood your question, you can try to do something like that:

// this const is 24 hours in milliseconds: 24 hours in day, 60 min. in one hour, 60 sec. in one min., 1000 ms. in one sec.
private static final int TWENTY_FOUR_HOURS = 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000;
//...
Date dateYouChose;
Date dateYouChosePlus50Days = new Date(dateYouChose.getTime() + (50 * TWENTY_FOUR_HOURS));

Updated:

So, maybe it will be good for you (but be careful, I did not test this code, maybe I made a mistake in something):

final DatePicker datePicker;

final Button btnDisplayCelebrationTimes;

final TextView txtDatePlus50;
final TextView txtDatePlus100;

// ...

btnDisplayCelebrationTimes.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

    @Override
    public void onClick(View v) {
        final SimpleDateFormat dateFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("dd.MM.yyyy");

        final GregorianCalendar gregorianCalendar;

        gregorianCalendar = new GregorianCalendar(datePicker.getYear(), datePicker.getMonth(),
                datePicker.getDayOfMonth());
        gregorianCalendar.add(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH, 50);
        final Date datePlus50 = gregorianCalendar.getTime();

        txtDatePlus50.setText(dateFormat.format(datePlus50));

        gregorianCalendar = new GregorianCalendar(datePicker.getYear(), datePicker.getMonth(),
                datePicker.getDayOfMonth());
        gregorianCalendar.add(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH, 100);
        final Date datePlus100 = gregorianCalendar.getTime();

        txtDatePlus100.setText(dateFormat.format(datePlus100));
    }
});
